  Do I need to install the System Update Readiness Tool KB 947821?

  Probably not: I had a lot of doubt that SP2 is installed if KB947821 has not already been installed.

  Given that this problem is after a fairly recent install of SP2...

  Free unlimited installation and compatibility support is available for Windows Vista, but only for Service Pack 2 (SP2). This support, initially planned to end on November 26, 2009, has been postponed until February 26, 2010, so move on! Availability of support chat or messaging differs depending on your location. Some questions may require that more support for which he is advanced a charge.  Go to http://support.microsoft.com/oas/default.aspx?prid=13014&gprid=582034 & select appropriate category (i.e., download problem;) Installation problem; Problems after installing a service pack <=pick this=""> ).

  In the case opposite & whereas KB971644 is NOT a security update, you can simply hide the "thing":

  1. stop the automatic updates service:

  Start > Right click on run , and then select run as administrator > services.msc (type) > [OK]
  Double-click automatic updates > click stop
  (Stopping the service will take a moment)

  2 remove the contents of the download folder:

  Start > Right click on run , and then select run as administrator >
  (type or copy/paste) %windir%\SoftwareDistribution > [OK]
  Open the download folder and delete its content
  Close the window.

  3 start | Control Panel | System maintenance and (if you use Classic view, skip this step). Windows Update |  View the updates available (or Select the updates installed): right click on the (platform) update for Windows Vista (KB971644) | Click hide update | Confirm the prompt UAC (User Account Control), if any, & OK your way out.

  4. start the automatic updates service:

  Start > Right click on run , and then select run as administrator > services.msc (type) > [OK]
  Double-click automatic updates > click Start
  (Stopping the service will take a moment)

  =====================================
  To restore/show updates for Vista: Start | Control Panel | System maintenance and (if you use Classic view, skip this step) | Windows Update | Restore hidden updates: Find and select the update you want to install. Click restore. You can now select once again it and install through the normal process.

• I can't backup DVD for Windows Vista operating system due to the error of 0x8007001B

  I can't finish a DVD upward on my Windows Vista operating system.  This is due to an 0x8007001B error code.  I was unable to complete the fix to services.msu

  Hi mine,

  This isn't a question of MSE - there is a problem with Vista or your computer or your software backup or your DVD player or its drivers or something else. We are not the right people to answer your question and give you the best possible options and solutions - you have to talk to the experts.

  Please repost at: http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_vista-system?page=1&tab=all&tm=1304884961900 where specialists who understand and focus to help with these issues will be more than happy to help you.

  Although not my area of expertise (and you're welcome to ignore it and just after to the other forum), I did do research in any case and believe that the problem involves the corruption on your hard drive (although I could certainly be wrong - it is more likely to be the case if the full error message includes "drive cannot find sector requested" but you don't get the full error message, so I don't know). To try to fix it, if that is the problem, follow these steps:

  Go to start / all programs / accessories / command prompt and right click on command prompt, and then click Run as administrator.

  While in the command prompt, type chkdsk /f /r and enter and let it run. They tried to set itself to run at the next reboot. Answer Yes and restart to run the program. It will scan and attempt to resolve any corruption or bad sectors on your hard drive and remove especially as a potential cause.

  If this does not work, test better clean your hard drive. To test your hard drive, check the manufacturer and try to diagnosis HD (http://www.carrona.org/hddiag.html) or this test: hard drive diagnostics tools and utilities (storage) - Corp of TACKtech (http://www.tacktech.com/display.cfm?ttid=287). If it passes the tests, there's probably nothing wrong with it and you must do to the other support forum. If it fails, which include in your post on the other forum and let them advise you how to proceed.

  I hope that the above solves the problem. If this isn't the case, I am confident, they can help you in the other forum, because that's what they specialize in. It would help if you posted the message Word for Word that is accurate and complete, including all codes. In addition, it would help them if you explain the difficulty you mention services involving (a link to the site where you found the solution or at least what exactly you did and what has happened or not happened when you tried). And if you've tried my suggestions above, include the results in your message (so they don't ask you to do it again and will be able to exclude).

  Good luck and best wishes!
